Teaching Students with Special Needs in Inclusive Settings, 8e - 14803

Additional Book Details

Now published by PRO-ED, the eighth edition of Teaching Students with Special Needs in Inclusive Settings provides practical help for teaching students with disabilities effectively in both general education and special education classrooms. The overriding theme of the text is that all students, regardless of ability, deserve an equal opportunity to education in the general education classroom. This philosophy of inclusionthat students belong with their chronological age peersis the starting point. Teachers will find an abundance of information about specific disabilities and how to determine the services needed by individual students to ensure their success.
Each chapter includes extensive information about a specific disability, including a definition, common characteristics of students with that disability, effective inclusive practices, classroom adaptations, and a discussion of transition needs.
